About Us: Lightbox Pop-Up

Lightbox Anything Plugin

What the plugin is:

Lightbox Anything is a plugin from SQSP Themes that allows you to make any element into a “lightbox” link. A “lightbox” link, essentially, makes the chosen element a pop-up link.

How we used it here:

For Hare Brained Design Studio & our copy cat template we combined the Lightbox Anything Plugin and a CSS zoom on hover effect over our photos as a simple, interactive “about us” pop-up function. While the information included in the pop-ups are fun facts about our team members to help get to know us (the information we want to make sure folks read is in simple text blocks in the “meet our team” section), the interactive nature and the combined functions help show off the type of custom elements we can include in our projects. The nature of the pop-up being fun facts (rather than crucial information–similar to the Pet Dress Up pop-up) helps to communicate our style: fun, whimsical, but still strategic.
